@RogerCooper @thedog i was thinking i might try to recruit @wc_sumpton to help us but the basic problem is the version that we have does not appear to be very far along compared to some of the posts so it’s kind of hard to tell what they were thinking with the map also some of the territories are sort of microscopic i think there might be a problem with unit stacking as it stands as well

They need at least one more factory in addition to the one in Constantinopolis to reinforce the fronts. I guess they can get away without the Baghdad factory.

@schulz I mean, is there any difference between going with 48px and then zooming in on the map vs going with 54px and then zooming out? Because zoomed-out 54px looks better than zoomed-in 48px? Politicians answer. My logic goes like this, 2 & 4K screens have lots of pixels and as tech advances they will have more, this means that the standard 48x48px unit gets smaller and smaller on these screens, so now we need to draw the biggest unit icons we can and this is 54px high, width can be lots, lets say up to 96px wide. Another current hard parameter is 200% zoom. . How good is the AI in this map? I will make an outrageous claim and say 1941 Global Command Decision is the best AI you will play against. but I would say that wouldn't I. This map is written for solo play, Black_Elk & I spent ages play testing against the AI. The forum for GCD has 1.8 million views, so players must think its worth looking at. Also I like to think I know how the AI works, if that's possible, see here https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/3743/how-to-make-a-map-ai-friendly . handling of upkeep Resources are calculated at the being of the players turn, thanks to wc_sumpton. This means losses and gains of TT/SZ and no of units is all done at the start of the players turn. . handling of terrain & weather It all appears to work as intended, play it and judge for yourself. . diplomacy Has not changed, its all still random, so 1941 GCD does not have any politics, its all scripted. However for FFA maps 1888A has "get impending winners", a set of triggers that forces the AI players to take a step closer to war/fighting the impending winners.

@mammothman64 Hi mammoth yea so what you need to do for now is hit turn summary ctrla ctrlc and then save the game. Then post both directly to the game thread and your opponent can dl the save from there. I'll dig up a link that explains it in detail https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/4151/johnny-cat-tutorial?page=1

I like Darcula - except the politics panel - those colours are a pain, indeed.

@RogerCooper The wiki option was looked at some time ago, you may recall the thread. 'fandom' uses an older wiki syntax and would make a transition to it not awesome. We'd have to rewrite all of our docs in the that syntax. Axis and Allies meanwhile is a trademarked term owned by Hasbro and we can not, should not, have anything official for TripleA that is associated with that trademark. Hosting our documentation under a URL with a trade marked term that we do not own could create an incorrect perception of an affiliation.

@BillCurtis Hi Bill I can't remember if I already sent this to you https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/4151/johnny-cat-tutorial Here's Victory's instructions https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/4076/1-trout-axis-vs-victoryfirst-allies-g40-house-rules-expansion-by-the-captain?page=1 Note The dice server is soon to be shutdown. Maybe as soon as tomorrow. Will need to use the new dice server https://dice.triplea-game.org/ and the latest triplea release 2026-June-13 - 2026-06.16.15640 I think when you DL triplea it takes you to the new release now. I'm not sure. I haven't gotten it yet. If not you should be able to find it here https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/releases There's a major transitioning happening right now. So best to start over with the new dice server and latest release. Some of the older information will become obsolete.

@GREGOREK What I think you are after and I too, is more control over the production_tabs.XXX.properties Here is an example from 1888a_steam_and_steel production_tabs.Autocrats.properties If only the tech researched units would appear in the order defined in the production_tabs file and just added to the end. Also the Edit Mode unit display should be consistent, with no production_tabs with production_tabs

@iratoric Hi ira What triplea engine version are you using ?

@jayc707 Hi JayC The images will be much sharper in game then they appear when posted here as well. The UHD maps use mostly Frostion units also , as well as his Iron War and Age of Tribes. You can add units to your preferred map and customize it. The map making threads have the information on how to do it. Ask there if you are interested in learning how. Donations are always welcome

@RogerCooper I think the ahistorical presence of the Bolsheviks in Siberia makes the game more interesting and provides more options to both sides. I haven't played against the AI in a long time. All I remember is that the AI is worse at handling naval stuff, not necessarily specific to the Americans on this map. There used to be a tech that gave transports +2 movement, but it was nerfed to +1. Not sure if that would make any difference to the American AI's behavior.

@Panther Not sure where to post this, so I'll put it here for now [image: 1781534549177-screenshot-from-2026-06-15-09-39-34.png] Edit Git issue https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/issues/14614
